Sula's Sketchbook

[zephyri]

Hey Sula! Looking good with this latest batch of studies. One suggestion I might make, especialyl when looking at guys who painted like Leyendecker did, is try to figure out *how* they paint something. For example, I think you might have learned more, had you painted the hair like he did, with solid, form-following strokes over the pale underpainting, rather than relying on the ease of digital to put those gaps back in over the solid dark shape. Ultimately that should help you get more of a grip of painting form rather than just copying the 2D shapes onto your canvas and help you 'loosen up' with being bolder with your paint strokes. But the understanding is definitely growing!
